Overall, the Dream Home campaign raised more than $950,000. All proceeds benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The hospital does not charge patients or their families for life-saving care.

Volunteers answered phones in the WBRZ studio that rang non-stop during the two hour broadcast Sunday evening.
